Strategy[edit | edit source]
In Multiplayer, many people bring the Lore of Beasts purely to summon Manticores (this is more pronounced on units like Skink Priests, and Bray Shamans). However, it is a good idea to bring one additional spell. Only two manticores can be summoned per game and it is easy to have winds of magic left over. If the battle does not end immediately, there is a good chance you will have unused magic left over which can be spent on a cheap second spell like Amber Spear.
